This is a picture I took while visiting Matamanoa in Fiji

I am Dutch and I live in Bonaire (Netherlands Antilles). I lived for 4 years in Fiji, half a year in Vanuatu and 17 years in Scotland. In the last 10 years I have spend nearly three years in Hawai'i. I love nature, ecology, watersports, movies, a good glass of wine and spending time with my two kids, Clark and Natalja.

During my travels I am writing a series of articles in 2006 on sustainable living and conservation projects for seedmagazine.com.
